MTV Unplugged 3

UMTV (9823971); Released 27th September 2004

Includes Bonus DVD With 10 Previously Unavailable Performances From REM, Page & Plant, K.D Lang, Sheryl Crowe, Paul Simon And Others

The MTV Unplugged series has proved beyond doubt the popularity of the live acoustic set. Over the years MTV has put on Unplugged shows for the biggest names in rock music - and the subsequent compilation albums have been multi-platinum sellers.

The Very Best Of MTV Unplugged 3 brings yet more classic hits from the Unplugged series, including - for the first time - a bonus DVD which features all the tracks on the audio disc, ten of which have never before been released. Fans are treated to a collection of some of the most famous recordings ever made: Page and Plant's 'Battle Of Evermore' is brought back to life 30 years after it's original recording on Led Zeppelin 4; Sting puts a brilliant and different spin on the Police 1979 hit 'Message In A Bottle' (the first of five No.1 hits during the band's career); and REM's 'It's the End Of The World As We Know It' is one of the outstanding songs from their legendary Unplugged performance. There are many other incredible performances on the album - the full tracklist is detailed below:
